Fort Stark State Historic Site

Parking was not easy. It was advertised as free parming and the explanation made it seem simple enough but finding free street parking in the area is not easy and you co stantly have to move your vehicles.

While the rooms look recently redecorated and modern, the public spaces look very dated and basic. The linens (sheets, towels, etc.) are basic motel level. The pillows were downright awful. There was also significant road noise and sounds of planes overhead so I needed the white noise app to drown it out. It was also disappointing to see that they still use tiny disposable toiletries (environmental nightmare but also not a good guest experience to try to eke out enough product for 2 people’s showers). On the whole, it’s fine if you don’t have another option, but expect a more basic experience than you might expect from the photos.
